Three-span, 520 foot truss bridge. There are two short Pratt truss spans at each end of the longer Parker truss main span. The south end of the bridge enters directly into the Cantilever Bar Tunnel.  Original span built by Joseph Tomlinson and was pre-fabricated in England and shipped to Canada in 1883. The bridge – then one of the longest cantilever spans in North America – was then constructed by the San Francisco Bridge Company. When the current bridge was built at Cisco in 1910, the original span was moved to the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway on Vancouver Island to cross the Niagara Creek Canyon   50.148535°N 121.5784°W

Built when Valemount did not exist. A town called Swift Creek was about 1.2 miles up the line, which is where the station was originally located. In 1927 the Canadian National Railway moved the station and renamed it Valemount, meaning "Valley in the Mountains." In 1987 the Valemount Historic Society bought it for $1 and relocated it to its present location. It underwent a five-year restoration and opened in 1992 as the Valemount Museum
